Exegesis
Finally, eis tous oikous heautōn {εἰς τοὺς οἴκους ἑαυτῶν | eis toùs oíkous heautō̂n} ‘into their own houses’ adds a spatial and relational dimension of hospitality. The sequence from realization to purpose to timing and reception is preserved in English.
In context — Luke 16:4
I know what I will do, so that, when I am put out of the stewardship , they will receive me into their houses .
